Winter excursions in Andermatt

Climb up 1,500m in altitude from Andermatt to the Gemsstock, at almost 3,000m above sea level. From this vantage point that is truly in the heart of the Swiss Alps, you have all-round views sweeping across half of Switzerland.

The Schöllenen Gorge is probably the most legendary section of the historic Gotthard route. On the Devil's Bridge over the roaring Reuss, you can get an idea of how hard and dangerous the path across the Alps once was.

The Gütsch-Express, which was opened in 2017, takes just eight minutes to reach its destination. The monocable circulating ropeway not only offers picturesque views but is also able to transport 2,400 people per hour from Andermatt to the Gütsch.
